this makes no sense. How do they even know the people are Afro-Latino if they put down white?

They certainly don't look white :dead:
I can see Latinos trying it because  a lot of them can pass

But many Afro Latinos are brown .. With looser textured hair :dead:
Especially Dominicans

My boyfriend nor I have never even looked at the white option.

and I've never even seen or heard of even a full on person here in Miami that considers themselves as white.

Well you could argue Dominicans aren't BLACK either...

Neither culturally nor genetically.

Because even if you are 40 percent subsaharan african, your 43 percent caucasian can make you tick white instead.

race is a social construct in the states

Black and white are usually titles given based on appearance
The cops won't ask for your DNA report before shooting wat appears to be a nigger to the ground.
